1.2.1 Configuring Static Mac Address

Static MAC address entries are MAC address entries that do not age by the switch and can only be deleted manually. According to the actual requirements during the operation process, you can add and delete a static MAC address. Use the following command in privileged level to add and delete a static MAC address.

Command Purpose

configure Enters the global configuration mode.

[no] mac address-table static mac-addr

vlan vlan-id interface interface-id

Adds/deletes a static MAC address entry.

Mac-addr indicates the MAC address.

Vlan-id indicates the VLAN number. Valid

value is from 1~4094.

Interface-id indicates the interface name.

exit Returns to EXEC mode.

write Saves configuration.

1.2.2 Configuring MAC Address Aging Time

When a dynamic MAC address is not used during the specified aging time, the switch will delete this MAC address from the MAC address table. The aging time of the switch MAC address can be configured in terms of needs. The default aging time is 300 seconds.

Configure the aging time of MAC address in the privileged mode as follows:

mac-addr | interface interface-id | vlan

vlan-id]

Deletes a dynamic MAC address entry.

Dynamic indicates the MAC address that
